New Hope to raise her six-year-old son is supposed to be a fresh start, a way
to put her past in the rearview mirror and focus on the road ahead. She isn’t
looking for friendship or a relationship, especially with one very sexy
detective who won’t stay out of her life or out of her mind.

No matter
how hard she pushes him away.

explodes into his world, showing him a glimpse of a future filled with all the
things he craves, he makes the decision to grab a hold and not let go.

Even if it
means sacrificing what he already has.

However, a

only way to keep each other safe is to stand together. Luke will need to show Kate that trust is not
just a word, but given to the right person, a promise.
